In the output one finds lines like:
number of electron 791.9932274 magnetization
augmentation part 517.2524599 magnetization
what is the "augmentation part"? what is the correct value for this quantity?

he concept of the augementation charge is discussed in the standard papers on US-pseudopotentials and VASP
